However, Cassian understood that the original owner’s weakness and timidity were the results of childhood trauma. Had he grown up in a normal family, perhaps his life would have followed a more typical path, and he wouldn’t have met such a tragic end.
Cassian couldn’t help but wonder how his biological mother, Tuesday, would react if she knew that her real son had died five years ago. Perhaps she would only feel disappointed that she had lost another tool to manipulate, or she would scorn him for being so useless, unable to even care for himself.
Ultimately, the selfish and self–serving Tuesday would undoubtedly shift all the blame onto others, completely forgetting that she had never truly fulfilled her duties as a mother. Tuesday was left speechless, staring at Cassian, unable to come up with any justification for herself.
“And back then, you told my father you would bring me to Forreb for a better life. That‘ s why he agreed to let me come with you. Is this ‘better life‘ you promised me just about having me donate my heart to your other son so that he could regain his health?”
“I never thought of it that way!” Tuesday suddenly retorted, her voice rising with agitation. “When I brought you here, it was because I wanted you to marry a decent girl, to ease the burden on the family. There are so many noble young ladies in Frihamen City. Pick one, marry her, and you’ll be set for life!
“Still, this is the place everyone from the lower realms dreams of. Even the common people here have a status much higher than those from the lower realms. I’m doing this for your good!”
“For my good?” Cassian sneered. “You’re just thinking about your position in the Cherry family. You want me to marry someone I don’t even like to secure your standing. You’re nothing but selfish.”
“Cassian… I know you’re still holding on to your feelings for Raven, but what’s the use? Raven has already moved on and is with someone else now. Back in Vyrdenia, you even heard that man admit to his affair with her. Staying there will only cause you more embarrassment.”
Tuesday finally understood why Cassian refused the marriage arrangement; he couldn‘ t let go of Raven. “Cassian, listen to me. A woman like Raven, who’s so fickle, doesn’t deserve your heartache. There are plenty of decent girls in Forreb.
“Even though Frihamen City is just a tertiary city, the young ladies from those families are well–educated and outstanding. They are no less than Raven. If you can’t get over Raven’s betrayal immediately, I ca. Successfully unlo

might meet someone special. I’m your mother, how could I harm you? The future wife I choose for you will be the most suitable!”
“I don’t want any ‘suitable choice. My fiancée is only Raven,” Cassian said.
“What’s so special about her? There are so many elite young ladies in Forreb; none are less excellent than her. Why are you so obsessed? Don’t you realize how many people from the lower realms dream of marrying into a Forreb family? Now that the
opportunity is right before you, you’re not seizing it.
“Besides, Raven has already moved on to another man. Why are you still holding onto her? Cassian, wake up. Stop being foolish. Your only way forward now is to marry into a prestigious family. That’s the only way you’ll be able to establish yourself in Forreb.
“Now that you’re in Forreb, do you want to return to the lower realm and live as a commoner again? Let me tell you, the Sutton family has shown interest in an alliance with us. If Felipe can marry their daughter, they will invest 1.5 million dollars. That’s 1.5
million dollars!”
